Julien Dort, M.Sc.

Research Agent

Julien joined CRIM in September 2014 as a research agent. He works mostly on a project that aims to optimize the management of public service teams and their motorized travel.

He holds a master’s degree in computer science (Université du Québec à Chicoutimi, 2014) and a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science with a specialization in software architecture (École Supérieure de Génie en Informatique, Paris, 2012). During his master’s degree, he worked as a research assistant in UQAC’s computer science research group. This period enabled him to get specialized in operational research, particularly in the use of metaheuristics to solve complex problems. From 2011 to 2013, Julien was an analyst/programmer for Thales Global Services, a company working in security and defence. This job enabled him to work on problems such as virtualization and continuous integration.

His main research interests are operational research and optimization techniques based in metaheuristics.
